Intimate
in subject and scale, the pictures represented in
this book of postcards are the skilled accomplishments
of Monet, Degas, Pissarro, Morisot, Renoir, Seurat,
and other major impressionists. A small Manet still
life is notable for the assured freedom of its brushwork;
Vuillard painted his own paint box; Toulouse-Lautrec
captured the likeness of his patient dog sitting
in a sun-splashed garden; Bonnard, a picnic table
under a shady tree (front cover).

The
works reproduced here are of works drawn primarily
from the bequest of Ailsa Mellon Bruce to the National
Gallery of Art, supplemented by works given by her
brother, Paul Mellon, and other generous donors.
Modest in size but exceptional in their beauty and
subtlety, these paintings afford a glimpse into
the brilliant innovation and powerful immediacy
of impressionism. 17.5cm x 12cm

"It's
always exciting when Starbeck come to visit. Stewart's
van is crammed full of the most exciting & inspiring
things. When you can't get the students to the museum
they bring the museum to you."Lisa Coyle, Sandhurst School, Berks
